What is it about?

The Privateer web app is an innovative online tool for carbohydrate 3D structure validation. The web app allows fast, local structure validation without the requirement to send any files to an external service. Users can validate structural composition and conformation, anomericity and linkage-torsion outliers from a web browser. The web app is available at <https://privateer.york.ac.uk> and is always up to date with respect to the source code on GitHub.
